CVE-2026-73227
HighCVSS 8.1Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk24th percentile - higher than 24% of all known CVEs
Summary
electerm is an open-sourced terminal/ssh/sftp/telnet/serialport/RDP/VNC/Spice/ftp client. Prior to 3.15.120, electerm allows a malicious RDP server to write attacker-controlled content outside the selected save directory because the RDP clipboard download path in src/client/components/rdp/file-transfer.js passes the server-controlled CLIPRDR filename fileInfo.name to osResolve without sanitization. This issue is fixed in version 3.15.120.
Risk Assessment
A malicious RDP server can overwrite files outside the intended directory, potentially leading to system corruption or enabling further attacks.
Recommendation
It is recommended to immediately upgrade electerm to version 3.15.120 or later to prevent unauthorized file writes.
